Abstract
An apparatus for forming leads of semiconductor devices includes a tie-bar cutting device for cutting tie-bars connecting adjacent leads in a lead frame on which semiconductor chips are mounted and which has unwanted resin burrs as a result of resin-sealing, a resin-burr removing device for removing resin burrs from the lead frame whose tie-bars have been cut, and a bending device for bending the leads of the lead frame whose resin burrs have been removed. After tie-bars are cut from a lead frame on which semiconductor chips are mounted, resin burrs are removed from the lead frame and the leads of the lead frame are bent.
